Playing the role of a chef, Deva Mahenra practiced several basic processes including cutting ingredients to serving food (plating) with the concept of fine dining.
"Long before filming Luka Makan Cinta, I respect all professions including chefs. Before we shoot, in the preparation period I talk to friends who are chefs from graduates of French cuisine, Japanese style and the same struggle," explained Deva again.
"How chaotic the kitchen life is. It really has to be able to multitask how to keep various posts in line with their duration," he said again.
Teddy Soe as the director also explained that the food served in this series has a unique concept so that the players are required to be able to show their side as chefs.
